Answer:

Arithmetic average rate of return = 9.30 %

geometric average annual rate of return = 8.58%

correct option is A 9.30 % and  8.58%

Explanation:

given data

beginning share price = $50

time = 3 year

end year 1 prices =  $62

end year 2 prices = $58

end year 3 prices =  $64

to find out

arithmetic average annual rate of return and the geometric average annual rate of return

solution

we get here return for each period that is express as

Period 1 = \frac{end\ year1}{beginning}     ...........1

Period 1 = \frac{62-50}{50}

Period 1 = 24%

and

Period 2 = \frac{end\ year2}{beginning1}

Period 2 =  Period 1 = \frac{58-62}{62}

Period 2 =  -6.45%

and

Period 3 = \frac{end\ year3}{beginning2}

Period 3 = \frac{64-58}{58}

Period 3 = 10.34%

so  

here Arithmetic average rate of return will be

Arithmetic average rate of return =  (24% + -6.45% + 10.34%) ÷ 3

Arithmetic average rate of return = 9.30%

and  

geometric average annual rate of return will be here as

geometric average annual rate of return = ((1+r1) *(1+r2)*(1+r3))^{1/3} - 1     ................2

geometric average annual rate of return = ((1+0.24) +(1-0.0645)+(1+0.1034))^{1/3} - 1

geometric average annual rate of return = 8.58%

nadezda [96]

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

1. The standard cost for each one is as follows

For Direct materials, it is

= 9.6 pounds × $4.55 Per pound

= $43.68

For Direct labour, it is  

= 1 hour × $15.80 per hour

= $15.8

For Variable manufacturing overhead, it is

= 1 hour × $3.40 per hour

= $3.40

For Fixed Manufacturing overhead, it is

= 1 hour × $6 per hour

= $6

2. The standard cost of one flower pot is shown below:

= $43.68 + $15.80 + $3.40 + $6

= $68.88

Which of the following survey response methods is the most difficult for researchers to code for evaluation:
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

No options are given, but the most commonly used survey response methods are:

  1. Multiple choice questions = generally easy to code
  2. Rating scale questions = also easy to code, since response scales have a finite number of choices, e.g. 2 true/false, 3 agree/disagree/undecided, 5 very bad/bad/fair/good/excellent
  3. Matrix questions. = are a little bit more complex since they involve several rating scale questions, but it is not something difficult either
  4. Dropdown questions. = similar to multiple choice questions
  5. Open-ended questions. = this are hard to code since each subject can respond different things, e.g. the thing that I like the most about this project is bla, bla, bla. There are no pre-set answers given to the subjects. THIS TYPE IS THE MOST DIFFICULT TO CODE.
  6. Demographic questions = similar to multiple choice
  7. Ranking questions = similar to scaled questions
